I made two pink striped Hug Me Sock Kittens. I will be posting my new handmade stuffed animal toys in our Ruffing’s shop.
I also made this magenta sock kitten with yellow, soft orange, and pink polka dots.
The iris are blooming here. I need to make a second the iris bed so I can divide them. I have so many beautiful ones that don’t bloom since the garden is overcrowded.
I made these oatmeal raisin cookies from a recipe in The Family Baker by Susan G. Purdy. They are a variation on the Quaker Oats recipe. They came out really good and I am eating too many of them.
I’m trying to move away from being on the Internet so much. I want to do some gardening and reading and maybe some drawing. I’ll still be posting my toys here, and on our Ruffing’s Facebook page. I was proud of myself today for planting Maxie’s forsythia bush. The yard has clay just under the surface, which makes it difficult to garden. I want to try my iris bed next.
